Our Drilling Equipment and Capabilities

Drillwest is a powerhouse in drilling and equipment supply for the resource sector. Our rigs and support equipment are kept in excellent condition and undergo regular servicing, cleaning and maintenance to ensure they are in good working order.

Each rig has two support vehicles on site that are customised to suit the needs of the rig, the terrain and the type of drilling being carried out. The vehicles may be used for water carting, personnel transport, refuelling or other duties as required. Many of the support trucks offer large capacity water and/or fuel tanks.
